Michael Jordan reveals the most memorable dunk of his career

Michael Jordan dunked over hundreds of players during his NBA career, so picking his favorite dunk can’t be easy. In a video for the newly released videogame NBA 2K14, Jordan said that the one dunk he thinks about “very, very often” is his throwdown over Patrick Ewing in the 1991 NBA Playoffs. Jordan spun away from Charles Oakley on the baseline and soared into the air over Ewing, stunning Madison Square Garden.

“I told him, Georgetown guys don’t block shots, they take charges,” Jordan said. “I dunked it on him so hard it was unbelievable. Every time I see him, that’s the first thing I remind him of.”

Jordan gave an honorable mention to his dunk over Dikembe Mutombo, which ended with Jordan wagging his finger in signature Mutombo fashion.

Jordan also dished on what he felt was his best year (1995), and the significance of the number 23.
